Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrated the variation of different parameters with quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) and differential phase shift key (DPSK) sequence generator, which generates modulated signals, in data transmission for communication and analysed that how the difference of these sequence generators effect its resonant frequency (RF) value, eye diagram and electrical constellation representation of the system.

Keywords: differential phase shift key (DPSK); quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM); ON–OFF keying (OOK); return-to-zero (RZ); non-return-to-zero (NRZ); resonant frequency (RF)
PACS: 42.79.Sz; 42.30.Lr; 42.15.Eq
